Reducing energy demand has a central role in achieving this goal, but existing policy initiatives have been largely incremental in terms of the technological and behavioural changes they encourage. Against this background, this book develops a sociotechnical approach to the challenge of reducing energy demand and illustrates this with a number of empirical case studies from the United Kingdom. In doing so, it explores the emergence, diffusion and impact of low energy innovations, including electric vehicles and smart meters. The book has the dual aim of improving the academic understanding of sociotechnical transitions and energy demand and providing practical recommendations for public policy. Combining an impressive range of contributions from key thinkers in the field, this book will be of great interest to energy students, scholars and decision-makers. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in energy transitions. 606 $aEnergy policy$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnergy conservation$zGreat Britain 610 $aGlobal temperature 610 $areducing 610 $aenergy 610 $aUnited Kingdom 610 $aSociotechnical transitions 610 $aLow carbon innovation 610 $aimpact 615 0$aEnergy policy 615 0$aEnergy conservation 676 $a333.790941 700 $aJenkins$b Kirsten E.H$4edt$01355931 702 $aHopkins$b Debbie 702 $aJenkins$b Kirsten E.
